Adding Clocks and Tickers
Adding a Clock
Using Template Maker, text boxes can be configured to receive dynamic text,
such as a running clock or date field, as opposed to simple text that is entered
at design time into the text box itself. You can display a clock on a slide and
keep it on for the entire production. The clock’s time is updated as its content
is replaced on a continuous basis.
To specify the date or time in a text box:
1 In PowerPoint, create a text box object and select it.
2 In the General tab of Template Maker, enter a descriptive name for the
text box in the Display Name field.
3 In the Current Slide area, click Slide. The available slide properties
appear.
4 Click the Next (>>) tab to reveal more slide properties and choose Clocks
and Tickers. The TickerList area appears.
5 In the Clocks and Tickers tab, choose Add. The Ticker Properties dialog
box appears.
6 In the General area of the Ticker Properties dialog box, enter a name to
describe the ticker.
